Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -For many, graying begins in the 30s, but it is largely determined by your genes. Gray hair occurs earlier in white people and later in Asians. Genes also determine how much hair remains on your head. Almost everyone has some hair loss with aging, and the rate of hair growth slows with aging.

Detailed explanation-2: -This is one of the clearest signs of aging. Hair color is due to a pigment called melanin, which hair follicles produce. Hair follicles are structures in the skin that make and grow hair. With aging, the follicles make less melanin, and this causes gray hair.

Detailed explanation-3: -Stage 1: There’s little or no hair loss or hairline recession. Stage 2: There’s slight hair loss near the skin between your ears and forehead (temples). Stage 3: You have deep hairline recession around your temples, and your hairline may have an “M” or “U” shape.

Detailed explanation-4: -“The reason we lose the ability to make the pigments is that we lose a lot of cells as we get older, ” he said, including the subcutaneous fat cells that keep skin looking smooth and wrinkle-free.

Detailed explanation-5: -As we get older, the pigment cells in our hair follicles gradually die. When there are fewer pigment cells in a hair follicle, that strand of hair will no longer contain as much melanin and will become a more transparent color-like gray, silver, or white-as it grows.
